Day 1 - Entry 3

That might have been the single worst idea I have ever had. It started off all Lilly's and bumblebees. I had covertly moved into a perfect surprise attack position where I waited silently. After a short time, the skinny human entered the sleeping chamber, and as expected it went down to its knees and peered under the bed. That put its lower calf perfectly in range for a sneak attack, talons extended. Without warning, I sprung from my cover and sunk both paw's worth of talons onto its right calf. Then it went all pear-shaped.

I now know that humans wear an extra set of removable skin or possibly thin armor. Knowing how evil they have to be, I would bet it is armor made from the skin of one of their other victims. Although my talons struck true, sinking into either side of its calf, they didn’t penetrate much beyond the blue dense second skin armor covering the lower half of its body.

For a brief moment I declared victory as the skinny human let out a cry of pain, but then as it sprang to its feet, I tried to disengage my attack only to find that my talons had become entangled in its second skin. This was truly the least favorable scenario for this stage of my attack, for as it stood and took two steps for the door, it pulled me along with it in the opposite direction that I wanted to go. Luckily, by a twist of fate, some sort of primordial instinct stored in the genes of this form took over, and I executed three left spin flips followed by one and a half to the right. This proved effective as my blood-stained talons pulled free of its leg.

At least something good came out of the debocial, I learned that humans bleed, and if they can bleed they can be killed. Maybe escaping the insides means devising a way to remove my human captors from the picture.

I wonder what a de-claw is? The skinny one said something about someone getting de-clawed as it was leaving the sleeping chambers. It did not sound very happy when it said it, this question might keep me up tonight.

I have been back under the sleeping platform for a while now and the skinny human has been leaving me alone. I might have wounded it more severely than I first suspected.
